Nadine's Song

The waves are grasping every bone and I think I’m going down
So if you’re the man they say you are, dear God don’t let me drown
For a new life waits before me - on the brink of your divide,
And a lady waits to take my hand – so boatman take the tide.
Don’t let the waters swallow me, don’t let the rains come down
For my love waits on the coastline, spare me one more time around
The sea is never ending, it seems half a lifetime wide
But if we all row together, we can make the other side
So you row to the left, mate, and I’ll row to the right
And tomorrow everything will be alright
Yes, tomorrow everything will be alright.
My words for her flow stronger, than your seven deadly seas
But words don’t make a strong man, I’m weakening at my knees
And my compass points to heaven – I don’t wanna go that far
So Neptune calm your servants, who the hell d’you think you are?
You may be overseer for the travellers of the sea
But while someone needs a friend my friend, don’t think you’re taking me.
The sea is never ending, it seems half a lifetime wide
But if we all row together, we can make the other side
So you row to the left, mate, and I’ll row to the right
And tomorrow everything will be alright
Yes, tomorrow everything will be alright.
Sanctuary is timeless, so a man’s words once said
But sanctuary is in a heart and not just in the dead.
I love the world you live around, but I don’t want no part
But should you break my journey, you will break another’s heart.
So come on, make your mind up now – say what you gonna do?
Take me or pro-tect me, my conclusions rest with you.
The sea is never ending, it seems half a lifetime wide
But if we all row together, we can make the other side
So you row to the left, mate, and I’ll row to the right
And tomorrow everything will be alright
Yes, tomorrow everything will be alright.
